Find changesets by keywords (author, files, the commit message), revision number or hash, or revset expression.
help: tweak --verbose command help hint We used to have two slightly different message which people wouldn't read... and then complain that they couldn't find the global options or examples. So we unify them into one message that's upfront that STUFF IS INTENTIONALLY HIDDEN and that looks more like our normal hint style.

Mercurial
=========

Mercurial is a fast, easy to use, distributed revision control tool
for software developers.

Basic install:

 $ make            # see install targets
 $ make install    # do a system-wide install
 $ hg debuginstall # sanity-check setup
 $ hg              # see help

Running without installing:

 $ make local      # build for inplace usage
 $ ./hg --version  # should show the latest version

See http://mercurial.selenic.com/ for detailed installation
instructions, platform-specific notes, and Mercurial user information.
